President Cyril Ramaphosa sê Suid-Afrika het geslagsgeweld en vrouemoord tot 'n nasionale krisis verklaar. Hy het Donderdag tydens die G20 Maatskaplike Beraad in Ekurhuleni gesê die land kan net gemeenskappe bou wat in gelykheid gewortel is, indien die regte van vroue en meisies gehandhaaf word. Die president sê geen samelewing kan floreer terwyl geslagsgeweld en vrouemoord voortduur en vroue ontken word nie:
Die Vryheidsfront Plus het burgemeester van Ekurhuleni, Nkosindiphile Xhakaza, gekritiseer omdat hy 5 miljoen Suid-Afrikaanse rand bestee het aan G20-maatskaplike beraadlokale sonder begrotingsgoedkeuring terwyl inwoners verbrokkelende dienste moet verduur. Dit sluit in langdurige kragonderbrekings, watertekorte, rioolstortings en onverwyderde vullis. Jennifer Glover sê die party eis duidelikheid oor die befondsingsbron, die goedkeuring van die Tesourie en die beskerming van noodsaaklike dienste, maar het geen reaksie ontvang nie. Glover sê die Metro prioritiseer prestige bo inwoners se basiese behoeftes:
Die Demokratiese Alliansie in George in die Wes-Kaap het 'n nuwe veelparty-koalisie-ooreenkoms aangegaan, wat hul leierskap in de raad verseker. Misdaad op die N2 in die Wes-Kaap is weer onder die vergrootglas, en die Ekurhuleni metro begin 'n ondersoek teen korrupsie.
Ekurhuleni se burgemeester, Nkosindiphile Xhakaza, het 'n omvattende interne ondersoek gelas na ernstige bewerings teen senior amptenare van die metropolisie, insluitend die geskorste adjunkhoof, Julius Mkhwanazi. Die Madlanga-kommissie het verlede week getuienis vanaf verskeie amptenare aangehoor wat beweer die EMPD is deur misdadige groepe geïnfiltreer. Xhakaza sê hy het ook die stadsbestuurder opdrag gegee om binne 30 dae 'n voorlopige verslag oor die ondersoek in te handig:

Die voorsitter van die ANC se nasionale uitvoerende komitee vir ekonomiese transformasie, Zuko Godlimpi, sê die DA se beswaar teen swartbemagtiging is gebaseer op vals inligting.

Hy het reageer op onlangse druk deur die DA om swart ekonomiese bemagtiging te vervang met sy eie Wetsontwerp op Ekonomiese Insluiting vir Almal:

Die Ondersoekdirektoraat Teen Korrupsie het bevestig die polisie ondersoek 'n saak van aanranding en die ontvoering van hul nasionale hoof Matthews Sesoko.

In the latest edition of the NDB Sunday Show, Political Analyst Professor Theo Venter, tells Chris Steyn that evidence emerging at the Madlanga Commission shows how crime networks were not only working towards the Tembisa Hospital, and were not only influencing the police at certain levels, but they had also captured local government. “They totally captured the...Metro government of Ekurhuleni in the sense that they were able to drive their own cars with Blue Lights and things like that.” He further comments on the allegedly staged assassinatipn attempt on former African National Congress election fixer Brian Mogotsi as well the “kidnapping” of an IDAC chief investigator who was “robbed” of his devices. Venter tracks the fall of former Cabinet Minister Malusi Gigaba from Presidential hopeful to NPA accused.

Sekretaris van Santaco in Gauteng, Graham Fritz, sê die geweld is verwoestend vir families en gemeenskappe.
